 * So is the short answer no, there is no way to access the link if you don’t receive
   the email? It isn’t in the database for example. And if it isn’t available, how
   about adding it as a feature?
 * I know how to troubleshoot; e.g., to use phpmyadmin to drop tables, turn off 
   plugins and change userIDs and passwords. I also have access to a file manager
   in cPanel that I have already used to edit the .htaccess file, and read the error_log.
   So far, no luck with any of that, still a critical error.
 * So having access to the link would save me a lot of time and possibly solve my
   problem.

 * Here is what the instructions say: Disable automatic redirection to the login
   page when /wp-admin/ is requested by an **unauthorized** request.
 * How is a request with the **correct** username from a **whitelisted IP** an “
   unauthorized” request?
 * Surely, these requests should be redirected to the login page, and NOT be shown
   the “not found” error?

 * Thank you. I was able to resolve the problem and so want to advise you of the
   problem. For some reason the WP installation was seeing my login IP as the server
   IP. That IP was blocked due to numerous spam submissions through my contact us
   form.
 * From this I learned to always add the server IP to the Whitelist. Just FYI to
   you in case you want to add that to your setup instructions, always whitelist
   the server IP on shared hosting.

 * It wasn’t the theme. Same result with a WP theme that I know works with Cerber.
   Only thing left is something at the host, how they operate Apache perhaps? I 
   asked them to investigate. The host denied it was the problem. So I got a new
   host, moved my site and it worked fine at the new host.
 * I wished the host would have been more interested in troubleshooting the problem.

 * Thanks. I read your post over carefully. I guess I can fix my problem now that
   I understand how to modify wp-config. It is pretty sad though that this is what
   you have to do, and iThemes hasn’t fixed this.

 * Thank you for the reply. I have index.php silence is golden set for the install
   directory. I thought the purpose of that was to stop directory scanning? And 
   if they can’t scan the install directory, they can’t scan directories like wp-
   content nested inside the install directory?

 * Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve reviewed the dummies book. It was published 
   in 2011. I hadn’t thought of the problem of WP evolving and books being static,
   but I can see that would probably frustrate my Dad. I’ll look on Amazon for a
   more recent dummy style book with good reviews as suggested. Thanks again.

 * No, the site seems to be OK. No broken images or missing links that I can see.
